City Building on the Eastern Frontier: Sorting the New Nineteenth-Century City (Creating the North American Landscape
Diane Shaw's book, City Building on the Eastern Frontier: Sorting the New Nineteenth-Century City, examines the development of Rochester and Syracuse, New York, during the early 19th century. Shaw argues that these cities weren't haphazardly built but were deliberately planned by entrepreneurs, who prioritized commercial interests over civic ones, resulting in a distinct spatial organization of commercial, industrial, and civic districts. The book analyzes the urban planning, architecture, and social dynamics of these cities, revealing how they reflected broader cultural values and economic forces of the era. Particular attention is paid to the roles of transportation, social class, and gender in shaping the urban landscape.
